Planned and Endowment Giving

Planned & Endowment Giving: Legacy of Excellence

The Steinberg Society honors those whose immense generosity and foresight help to secure the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra’s future. Named for the orchestra’s beloved and longest-tenured conductor, William Steinberg, this distinguished group recognizes individuals who have included the PSO in their estate plans and informed the Development Office of their intentions.

List current as of July 2026.

If you have questions or would like to request any changes to your recognition, please contact Camilla Brent Pearce, Senior Gift Planning Officer at 412-392-4842 or cpearce@pittsburghsymphony.org.
